libgringo is a library to writes applications that run both in console (using ncurses) and under X-Window (using gtk). libgringo detects if you are running from the console or under X-Window, and selects the right library to use without recompiling your code. gringosh and gringodlg are two parsers that use libgringo to provide similar functionality to the cdialog utility. It was written to make some configuration scripts work both in console and under X Windows without any modification. gringosh and gringodlg also provide features more powerful than cdialog such as the ability to have more than two buttons per form and more than two windows on the screen.
tkxinput contains Xi, a library that adds Xinput management capabilities to the Tk toolkit, and a utility named calibrate that can be used to test various aspects of the Xinput configuration of an X server. calibrate can be used, as its name implies, as a touchscreen calibration facility.
Apollo is an open-source developer test skeleton toolkit for Java Web Start/JNLP. It lets you turbo-charge Web Start apps without Web Start to speed up your compile/run/test/debug/goof-off cycle, avoiding the hassle of stuffing, signing, uploading, or downloading your jars every time you rearrange a comma in your source code.
Pexpect is a Python Expect-like module. It spawns child applications, controls them, and responds to expected patterns in their output. It can be used for automating interactive applications such as ssh, ftp, passwd, telnet, etc. It can be used to automate setup scripts for duplicating software package installations on different servers. It can be used for automated software testing. It should work on any platform that supports the standard Python pty module. Its interface was designed to be easy-to-use, so performing simple tasks is easy. It includes an ANSI/VT100 terminal screen scraping module.
cfgd is a daemon to maintain configuration files. It is designed to provide a single interface to configurations to all sides which are involved. It provides an API for application developers for different languages and a program for administrators and users to alter all configurations.
prtpacker (Portable Resource Tree Packer, pronounced PIRT-Packer) is a tool for creating C or C++ source code from external program resources such as images, text, or data. These resources can be arranged in a tree structure much like a typical file system. After compiling and linking the resulting source code you can access the resource tree from within your software through a simple API. Be aware that all resources stay in memory and cannot be easily deallocated.
Luau provides a backbone for disseminating software updates throughout a software project's userbase. It differs from other autoupdate solutions (eg. apt, Red Hat Network) in that it works on a decentralized basis: developers provide a "Luau Repository" file describing all currently available packages and updates which is then downloaded and interpreted by the client. It is also more flexible in that individual developers can distribute not only software updates but messages throughout the userbase, which can be used to inform users of important security updates, new software roadmaps, or anything else the developer thinks is important for users of the software package. Also provided is an X front-end ('luau-x') and a console-based front-end ('luau') that allow the user to check for and download or install updates for all supported software.
